I feel that people who haven't tried the thing they're commenting about in the last 10 years should start with a disclaimer like "=== ATTENTION, I'M JUST PARROTING HERE ===".

Interesting, and what should people do if they are unable to understand that others experiences can and do differ from their own?
As of an hour ago, plugging a trrs headset into the jack on my laptop breaks audio until I go kick the daemon. Linux is a pain in the neck.
Format your distribution. You probably messed some config file up, while trying to fix something.
They work completely fine. I use them all the time and have been using them for about a decade.

The irony of this response on a thread about how Linux support on the internet always devolves to condescending “it works for me” is delicious.
The bug to which I refer has been open for over a year and is well replicated on my hardware and distro. I would fix it myself but I can’t be bothered so I use Bluetooth (in one of the rare cases were there’s an audio problem on Linux and the solution is Bluetooth).
Most people complaining about bugs are unaware that the issue got solved 15-20 years ago. They just keep repeating the same thing over and over and over.

Most reporters of novel bugs get misunderstood by people overly aggressively pattern matching on similar closed bugs and then gaslit.
Unless the bug is actually ten years old and nobody will fix it because it's too old. https://bugs.ghostscript.com/show_bug.cgi?id=706455
